Top 10 Real Estate Condo Deals from 2010 – Sunny Isles to South Beach

Happy New Year friends and this will be post #1 of 2010. Here’s a shocking new thought for 2010… Just because it sold for that price in 2008 & 2009, does it mean you can buy it for that price today? It seems to be happening again and again as inventory decreases.. Will there be a tough time understanding & coping just opposite to the seller reluctancy seen in 2007 as the Miami Beach real estate market came to a standstill?
The buying window of opportunity in “catching the bottom” may be leaving in 2010. My 2010 forecast will be coming in the next few posts as I discuss market stats, trends and the direction this year could go in as relay that NOW is the time to find the bottom of South Beach to Sunny Isles Beach. Sale to List Price Ratio have jumped from 88% to 92%.
On the flipside, we will always find opportunities so if you wait this year to watch I am certain you can find the “deal.” Some buildings are already seeing appreciation. Space 01 for example went up 23% in the last 90 days! 11 Island Avenue has gone up 13% in the last 6 months. Roney Palace is on the direction up and more (FNMA Financing now Approved) to come..
Many would consider condo deals to be under ie) $250k but from $150 to $5.5M, here are my top choices for January 2010 in which I expect sales to occur within the next 60-90 days. I have previewed the majority with customers and these have been the top choices.. these links are LIVE so we’ll all soon find out once the Status changes from Active to Pending to Closed.

Miami Beach “Deal of the Month” – Bay View Loft #206
by AshtonColeman on Nov.25, 2009, under Condos and Development, Deal of the Month, Miami Beach Condos
Bay View Loft
Happy Holiday as we enter the day before thanksgiving with excitement & amazement both how much food we can stuff ourselves with plus the unfolding of the new year. Rounding off the final weeks of 2009, I am Very Thankful for all of you and my direct clients that have made this business thrive in a market that many would claim is quite challenging. So much will be unfolded in January with 2 new web sites and 2 new blogs surely to add value, substance and knowledge to the local Miami Beach real estate market. I end this week before leaving to see family with a blog post “deal of the month” that is under the radar because of it’s asking price yet will be a stellar beach pad (or should I say loft) for the savvy buyer. If you would like to see a new deal posted each month like this one, please comment below and let us know. Any questions pertaining, I’m easy to reach at 786.273.7326.
Welcome to Bay View Loft 206
Located in Miami Beach at 2000 Bay Drive right off the Kennedy Causeway as you enter East into the Miami Beach welcome sign. The loft complex is comprised of only 22, 2 story lofts with the vast majority facing out to the direct bay offering unobstructed bay views and the Grand View Palace Marina across the waterway. As of September, the association was financially healthy with a reserve fund in tact and a very low maintenance fee of only $435 monthly. It is unfortunately an owner occupied short sale so will take 3 to 7 months before possession occurs but for the patient buyer, should show great returns over the years. The rental income is $2,000 month and $2,500 for a seasonal lease (permitted at 3 month intervals).
